Amis' tries hard to nail London in Success (albeit from the perspective of two heartless males) - it shows it from both ends of the class system, and has lots of brilliant descriptions of the place, and the routines of its workers (getting the train to work is a highlight).
Obviously its vision is too Amis-y, in the same way that even when he tries to write from the perspective of Muhammed Atta - he just writes like Martin Amis. Good though...
